Newcastle Labours Priorities for 2026 and beyond.
Taking Pride in Every Neighbourhood
We are tackling fly tipping, litter and graffiti and investing in cleaner streets. We will go further by increasing enforcement, backing community clean-ups and improving our parks and green spaces so every part of Newcastle is clean, safe and welcoming.
Putting Children and Young People First
We will protect early years and family support, expand youth work and we will invest in outreach activities to give young people positive choices. We will continue improving play areas across the city, with fully accessible spaces for every child.
Improving Housing standards
We are improving housing across the city, including council homes. We’re investing in energy efficiency, holding landlords to higher standards and expanding Extra Care options for older residents.
Keeping Communities Safe
We are tackling antisocial behaviour by working with Northumbria Police and local communities. We will go further with more community action, better youth support and faster action where problems arise so every area feels safe and supported.
